Note and Coin News
The Central Bank of Bahamas has brought out a new version of the $10 in which the portrait of HM Queen Elizabeth II is replaced by that of Sir Stafford Sands, former finance minister and leading architect of the Bahamian economy.
The version it replaces was the first in the country`s CRISP (Counterfeit Resistant Integrated Security Product) series when this was introduced in 2005, and is the first to be subsequently reissued with a new design. With the exception of the $100 note, all the others in the series features portraits of Bahamian figures.
